2007-2017? Jeep Wrangler Duck Mount Shelf

*************I have a 2015 Wrangler Sahara Unlimited. I know it will work with other year Jeep Wranglers, but I don't know which. I know that many 3rd party add-ons say that they fit somewhere between 2007-2017. See the pictures of my dash to compare to yours. I've included a test print file that you can use to see if it will hold in your Jeep. If you print it for another year Wrangler, please, please, please post a make and let me know what year. Then I can update the description with that year as well.I************

Anyone who collects the Jeep Ducks, and mounts them on their dash (I use a small ball of Sticky Tak)  knows that the air to defrost the windshield is blocked and you get domes of undefrosted windshield above the ducks. This is designed to alleviate the problem by raising the ducks a bit and directing the airflow back to the windshield.

It is a modular design. This allows you to make it as long as you want to on the dash. It also gives a flat surface to mount the ducks. Like I said, I use a ball of the blue green sticky tak to keep them from rolling around. It is designed to use the ridges of the dash as a pressure mounting system. It won't damage the dash. Finally, if you build it like in the pictures, it creates a gap so the light sensor still works to control the automatic headlight switch and screen dimming.

Three pieces fit on each side of the light sensor. The left and right end pieces have a little extension to give a little more room and extends over the chamfered edge of the defrost channel. Print one each of those. The other part "DuckShelfPart2and3LandR" fit in between the end pieces. Print 4 to go all the way across the dash. Two will fit between the end piece and the light sensor.

I have 4 different size ducks (see picture). The two largest sizes stick out the back too far and even with the sticky tag aren't very secure. So, there is a part called the shelf extender that clips on the front and gives a stable platform for the larger ducks. 

If you don't have a lot of ducks yet, maybe you print 2 of the part 2 and 3 pieces and put one on each side of the sensor. As you get more ducks, you can add another of those pieces on each side. Then you could add the left and right end pieces when you need more room.

You know how much heat a Jeep puts out. I used PLA to print these. I didn't expect that the heat was enough, but it softened the part and the rear attachment pegs bent. It actually helped the part to settle into the channel better. They still hold the part in place, so I don't think it's a problem.

To Install:
The hooks by the open side (front) catch the lip of the dash close to the windshield. The two back hooks fit into a defrost hole and catches the inside lip. Put the left or right end pieces with the back hook in the first defrost hole with the extra extending toward the outside. The next parts connect in the next defrost hole (see pictures).

The little ball of Sticky Tak really works to secure them. See the picture of my Jeep on its side and the ducks still on the dash!

Please post a comment or Make and tell what year Wrangler you make this for so I can update the description.
